The ONE!

From Blog Favorites August/September
So this is the one that we picked. (o: Home sweet home. It's funny, after all the agonizing and searching and weighing pros and cons - when I went back through my pictures that I was snapping as we walked through so many houses, I had about 5 pictures of this house. I only took a total of about 12 pictures through the whole process (shocking, I know, for a picture-holic like myself. It was just too distracting to worry about taking pictures.) So the house I took the most pictures of, by far, was the one we ended up picking. It was like I knew all along.

This was on our final run - we took the girls to see our top three houses. They were hugging the house before they even saw the inside. It felt like home.

Our backyard. I was very happy about the raised garden bed - in the far corner.

Thanks so much for letting us take a peek. I love the kitchen. I have to admit that your favorite rooms would also be my favorite rooms. I [heart] storage areas. =)

The house is beautiful. Does it come with the food storage?? But Hillsboro will not be the same without your smiling face!

Jen said...

Thanks everyone (O: No, unfortunately, the food storage was not included, but we joked about having that addendum in our offer!

We were just laughing with our realtor, we have made an offer on the very first house that Brian looked at. We could have saved a lot of drive around town time!! I really like your new house and wish you a great moving experience!
